Community Bank of Nevada, Las Vegas, NV

Community Bank of Nevada, Las Vegas, NV, became one of the 77 bank closures of 2009 when the FDIC closed it today.

Community Bank of Nevada, Las Vegas, Nevada, was closed today by the State Commissioner, by Order of the Nevada Financial Institutions Division, which then appointed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) as receiver. To protect the depositors, the FDIC created the Deposit Insurance National Bank of Las Vegas (DINB), which will remain open for approximately 30 days to allow depositors access to their insured deposits and time to open accounts at other insured institutions. At the time of closing, the receiver immediately transferred to the DINB all insured deposits of Community Bank of Nevada, except for brokered deposits, certificates of deposit (CDs) and individual retirement accounts (IRAs). The receiver also transferred to the DINB all secured public unit deposits.

Nevada State Bank will provide operational management of the DINB under a contract with the FDIC. The main office and all branches of Community Bank of Nevada will open on Monday. Banking activities, such as direct deposit and writing checks, ATM and debit cards, can continue normally for former customers of Community Bank of Nevada during the 30-day transition period. It is also important to note that Community Bank of Nevada official checks will continue to clear and will be issued to customers closing accounts.

All insured depositors of Community Bank of Nevada are encouraged to transfer their insured funds to other banks. They may do so by asking their new bank to electronically transfer their deposits from the DINB or by writing checks for the amount in their accounts.
